Bai Beibei smiled at Xiaoer and said, "Little brother, since the shopkeeper has already found someone to make this ornament, then I won't go in and disturb the shopkeeper."

After Bai Beibei finished speaking, he dragged his elder brother and left, leaving behind a dull-faced Xiao Er.

Did he... get into trouble?
"Beibei, don't you sell these things after you make them?" Bai Manchuan asked puzzled.

"Of course I want to sell it, but I won't sell it to them!" Bo Beibei said with a sullen face.

"why?"

"We only sold it to him for a little money. They are not satisfied with such a high price. Why should I sell it to him?" She is not the kind of person who accepts everything.

Bai Manchuan didn't know the actual selling price of Bo Beibei to the shopkeeper. He thought that ten taels of silver was enough, but after hearing what Xiao Er said about the sky-high price, he suddenly felt that the price his sister sold to the shopkeeper was too low.

"Beibei, if we can't sell it to that decoration shop, who else can we sell it to?" This is what Bai Manchuan is most concerned about. If it can't be sold, the county will come for nothing.

"Brother, it's getting late, let's go to the inn first." Bo Beibei had plans, but she didn't want to tell her brother.

Because she was going to spread hatred tomorrow, she didn't want her brother to take the risk.

"Let's just find a place to stay for one night. What inn do we need?" Bai Manchuan disagreed with Bai Beibei's proposal. Everything in this county is expensive, and I don't know how much it will cost to stay in an inn for one night.

"Brother, this is a county town, not a country. There is a curfew at night. It would be strange if the officers and soldiers patrolling the street saw you and didn't arrest you as a thief." Bai Beibei threatened, but in fact, she made up all these things.

"Ah?" Bai Manchuan was startled: "Then it's better to go to the inn."

The male and female guests of the inn live separately. It was the first time for Bai Manchuan to stay in the inn, and he seemed very at a loss. The dinner was delivered to the room by the second child. He went to bed after eating, and he didn’t even dare to step on the door. take a step.

On the other side, Bai Beibei went to bed after eating and washing, and planned to recharge his energy for a battle tomorrow.

After breakfast the next morning, Bai Beibei asked Xiao Er to give Bai Manchuan a few words, and left the inn with the finished product alone.

Bo Beibei searched the street for a while, found a study, went to the study and talked with the shopkeeper for more than half an hour, borrowed a table and needlework and placed them at the door of the study, and then placed the twelve finished shells on the table. to the table.

Not long after, a luxuriously dressed young master came forward curiously with a servant. He originally planned to go to the study to buy the Four Treasures of the Study, but when he saw the shell ornaments on the table, he was attracted to him.

"Young master, look at how lively this carp is, as if it is about to jump up." The servant pointed to one of the shellfish with sparkling eyes and said to his master.

The rich young master nodded: "It's done very smartly."

"Young master, this ornament is called 'Carp Leaping over the Dragon's Gate', which means high school in one fell swoop. As long as you place it anywhere in the study room, you will be able to perform at a super level during the exam." Bo Beibei raised her face and said to The young master said.

She was talking about super-level performance, not necessarily high school, but also to avoid future troubles.

"Little girl, are you serious?" The young master was a little moved, he is working hard for next year's spring, if this thing is really so effective, it doesn't hurt to try it.

"Whether it's true or not depends on everyone's fate with this ornament." Bai Beibei once again left room for himself.

"Little girl, how much is this ornament?" the boy asked.

"250 taels." She had just agreed with the shopkeeper of the study that a commission of 50 taels would be drawn for each study sold.

"Master, the price is not expensive, let's buy one and put it in the study." The boy also hoped that his master could go to high school in one fell swoop, so that his face would also be bright.

The rich young master pondered and said: "Well, I'd rather believe it than not, just buy it."

When Bo Beibei introduced "Carp Leaping over the Dragon's Gate" to the rich young master, several scholars gathered around, hearing that this ornament has this function, they were eager to try it.

So I have to say that Bo Beibei has grasped the psychology of these scholars.

It's just that not all the people who live in the county are rich, and two of them are from poor family backgrounds, so they can only sigh with regret at this "carp jumping over the dragon's gate".

"Little girl, why is your boat so special?" Suddenly a man pointed to the shell sailboat and asked, this boat was different from any boat he had ever seen.

"Shouldn't this ornament be called 'Smooth Sail'?" Another man laughed.

It's no wonder that these people think this ship is special. In fact, this ship is made by Bo Beibei based on modern oil tankers, so it looks rather strange.

Bai Beibei hooked his lips, and said to the man: "Young master is so powerful, you can guess right, this ornament is indeed called 'Smooth sailing', this ornament has a wide meaning, it has a certain influence on official luck, imperial examination or family luck." s help."

"Is it really that amazing?" The shy man in the bag asked sourly.

"As I said just now, whether it can be effective or not depends on the fate of each person." Bai Beibei smiled inscrutablely.

"Cut, it's still a lie after all!" The man said with a face full of disdain.

Scholars have always been aloof, they can't afford it but want to save face, Bai Beibei smiled instead of anger, and was about to speak out when he heard a familiar voice from the crowd: "If you can't afford it, you can't afford it, stop messing around here! "

"Miss Qiao, Miss Xiaozhu?" Bai Beibei looked at the visitors in surprise, never expecting to see them again.

"Girl Beibei!" Xiao Zhu smiled at Bai Beibei.

Qiao Qiongyan walked around to Bo Beibei, and shouted arrogantly to the onlookers: "If you want to buy, buy it, if you don't buy it, leave quickly, don't hinder others from doing business."

Everyone was shocked when they saw Qiao Qiongyan's appearance: "Isn't this the eldest lady of the General's Mansion?"

"That's right, it's Miss Ben, what's the matter? Let me tell you, Beibei is my god-sister. If you want to bully her, you have to pass me first!" Everyone introduced.

Bo Beibei staggered and bumped into Qiao Qiongyan, staring at her.

Bai Beibei was slightly embarrassed, coughed lightly, and planned to ask clearly: "Well, Miss Qiao..."

Just as Bai Beibei opened her mouth, she was stared at by Qiao Qiongyan, and she obediently shut her mouth.

Bai Beibei was very puzzled, when did she recognize Miss Qiao as her god-sister?

Thinking about it again, I guessed that Miss Qiao might be helping herself out of intention.

The poor scholar saw that the little girl was actually the god-sister of the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion, so he withdrew from the crowd in despair.

The rest of the rich young masters who were a little excited didn't want to stay any longer when they saw Qiao Qiongyan, and they asked the servants to pay the money and went into the study, because these people were very disgusted with this rude, grumpy, and uneducated lady of the general's mansion. Disdain.
